Ive played it for about 30mins so far i think:
pros:
seems very tactical and slow so you got to use your head...also a quick and accurate finger trigger helps ;)
the maps seem totally different from one another

cons:
Very poor graphics on highest settings
unusual controls

Overall i think its got potential to be a great game but i dont think we will see that until at least the game has been out for a while along with some updates.
Click to expand...

very disapointed, very very slow - very poor gfx (the unreal engine is capable of way more) - strange controls

looked better in the trailers than it does when playing...

stick to bf2, css, dods, cod2 etc
 
How are the controls unusual?
Took about 10 mins to get used to my end.

Slow, yes, but its not trying to be the usual run & gun crap.

Graphics could do with a buff though, explosions look nice however.
 
i think its ok, pretty much exactly what i expected based on my UT RO experiences....

I think the graphics are ok, inside at least, some of the out door envionments are a bit sparse.

Nothing amazing, its different ill give it that. My friend was well excited about it, i told him he would hate it, he hates realism, he bought it, played it, and hated it after about 5 mins.....

ill def play it, but not as much as CSS
 
Its alright, you can tell its came from a mod tho, could do with more polish.

Low standered of gfx, but there good enough.

Sound is decent, but on the machine guns its a little strange, like sometimes its not synced.

Gameplay is slow, but Ive only played for 2 and half hours so I cant really say much more then that.
 
Its not as good as I hoped it would be, but it is still fun game to play, different, and worth it.

Will make a good change from some of the games Im currently playing, I can see it bein a good game to play between other fps sessions.
 
I hate it :( I paid for it and think it is pants - and I usually love these kind of games, I dunno what it is, the "plasma" tracers looks totally out of place and ruin the whole game for me - can you turn them off?
 
Must admit guys, my initial impressions after a short session last night were of disappointment mainly due to the poor graphics outdoors and the player animations

Gameplay-wise it seems "ok," I was playing as a lone wolf so it was very confusing and boring at times, hoping it'll be a bit more enjoyable with a bunch of mates on teamspeak
 
I think it would have been an excellent game, two years ago. As it stands just now I'm disappointed with it especially the character animations. Tanks look/sound fine as does general movement and shooting. Could do with a fair bit of improvement though.
 
It plays pretty much how I remember the UT Mod did.
Although it is not the most graphically advanced game, I like the gameplay a lot, especially tank combat. I think you need real teamwork, especially in the vehicles. Its impossible to get your sights on a target when the driver is all over the place.

I also love the attention to detail, like the sound when a shell thuds into the side of a tank or glances off the sloped armour.
 
It's an old engine, i was expecting better from the screenshots, movie clips I had seen.
Although I put my 6800gt on full AA/AF and it makes the game look much better.
This has got to be done in the nivida control panel though as there are no settings ingame for this. The graphics still seem dated, but its smooth, a lot of action going on and for a online multi game its not bad at all.
 
the graphics really are pretty pooh...i mean, there's SPRITES used for a fair few things. Looks like Doom 2 at times ;)


Very disappointing that they didn't overhaul it completely and use the source engine or something.

I will give this another try and try to get my moneys worth, but tbh, i doubt i would have forked out 16 quid for it if i'd had a chance to play it first.
 
In the trailers it looks like a immersive game whereas in reality it feels bland and basic.

All this hype over pre-paid games, very well sold thats for sure, it there had been a demo I doubt they've even have had 50% of the sales they did. I feel cheated to be honest.
